Up for sale is a high quality clone inspired by the famous 60's Teletronix LA-2A Tube Compressor. A faithful reproduction of the beast at a great price! This compressor is legendary for good reason and great care was taken to replicate it. One important addition is the high frequency control(limiter response) was added to the front plate which is very handy. This was a control on the back and set from the factory depending on what the application. This potentiometer was factory set for recording as "flat" side-chain response (clockwise). Increasing the resistance of this potentiometer by turning it counter clockwise will result in compression which is increasingly more sensitive to the higher frequencies. It filters out low frequencies to the T4B module so it compresses the lows less and changes the 'focus' of the compression. Very handy indeed to have up front as the demo video below points out!The Goods:1/2 watt Carbon comp resistors were used like the original from the 60's, Cornell Dubilier, Panasonic and Nichicon Capacitors were used throughout. NOS vintage tubes in the audio path. Custom wound Cinemag transformers. A custom made circuit board designed for lowest noise specs possible. I also make my own T4B optical cells using the highest grade photocells and replica EL Panels. I have Kenetek and Drip T4's I use for comparison
